Women’s Role in Love and Choice in Love and Marriage - Short Stories

Love. Perhaps the one word solution for everything. An emotion, a state of mind that we strive for, search for. A wondrous force that binds, inspires, and a force that can spin out of control; unbalanced and fragile. Love reflects, changes and embraces us all. In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country. Men did, in the age of our classic authors, usually declare their supremacy in all manner of things. They had the authority, both moral and legal, they had control of the assets. If the game is rigged there can be only one winner. Yet in this volume our authors more closely examine the part of women in the relationship of love and open both our eyes and our ears to a truth in each and every story that reveals a rather different balance.1 - Woman's Role and Choice in Love - Short Stories - An Introduction2 - The Ice Palace by F Scott Fitzgerald3 - The Horse Dealer's Daughter by D H Lawrence4 - Madame Rose Hanie by Khalil Gibran5 - A Respectable Woman by Kate Chopin6 - The Daughter of Lilith by Anatole France7 - The Skylight Room by O Henry8 - The Looking Glass by Anton Chekhov9 - Here We Are by Dorothy Parker10 - Right At Last by Elizabeth Gaskell11 - The Unfortunate Bride or The Blind Lady a Beauty by Aphra Behn12 - Spurs by Tod Robbins13 - The Inquity of Oblivion by Kenneth Grahame14 - An Outcast of the People by Bithia Mary Croker15 - Two Offers by Frances Watkins Harper16 - The Difference by Ellen Glasgow
